We are investigating cloud & fog architectures for executing tasks with near real-time processing requirements. For example, managing tasks injected from vehicular systems into cloud or edge-based computing backends for processing.
We are working on middleware and programming frameworks for IoT that would self-organize the IoT and edge computing systems for optimal placement of task executions. We are using machine learning for optimizing handover and also data transfer with edge-based IoT.
We are implementing easy-to-use networking toolkits, high-level toolkits for experimenting with clouds, software-defined networks, and virtual network functions. This work started as a teaching toolkit and is quickly evolving as a research platform into novel distributed cloud architectures combining Clouds, SDN and NFV.
